Should You Buy Pet Insurance?

#028 - Should You Buy Pet Insurance?

One of the most common questions we get asked in our pet food stores is, “What do you think about pet insurance?” And, I’ll be honest - I have a lot of feelings about pet insurance!

In our household, we pay over $400/month for pet insurance for our three, large breed dogs. AND it’s almost a monthly occurrence that we get an email notifying us that one or more of the dogs’ premiums have gone up.

So, is it worth it? Would we do things differently now if we could start fresh again?

In today’s episode I’ll be exploring the answers to those and many other questions about pet insurance.

Holly's qualifications include:

Certified Pet Food Nutrition Specialist
Assisting pet parents with holistic health and nutrition for 16+ years in her pet food stores: Tail Blazers Copperfield and Tail Blazers Legacy.
